Innofreight and the world’s largest shipping company MSC have launched their first cooperation together. In March of this year, the first block train of 2×40 ft InnoWaggons with empty MSC sea freight containers arrived at the Montan Terminal Kapfenberg, Austria. This marked the start of a transport loop for the Austrian refractories company RHI Magnesita, delivering finished products to the port of Trieste, Italy and raw materials back to Kapfenberg in one train rotation.
